So I buy a gen 1 vette body from AM

[babybat]

And it says to use no spacer and the shortest configuration for chassis length and an evo rear clip vette from body clip, yada yada yada common stuff. Well I take my spacer off reconfigure the chassis length to the shortest possible using the right clips. I go to put the body on and the front AND back wheels still rub. I'm not using big wheels either, just GT-R stock wheels and normal soft slick tires. They rub way too much to just shave the body and even if minor shaving was required, I really don't wanna mess up this body since it's discontinued. Please can anyone tell me if they had the same problem? I really like this body and wanna use it as my primary body because I don't plan on painting this one like all my others and that means i can run it without worrying about the paint coming off as bad.

SORRY FOR LONG POST. thanks in advance though.

I figured it out. Remember how the older rear clips had two screw hole in em? That was for the gen1s. I need that one and can't find it anywheres. O well, anyone got one for trade or sell?

drill out a hole in the evo clip... use the smallest screw driver and make the hole right in front of the other one....

Okay thanks, I didnt know if it needs to be in front or back.

Yeah good point... erm... it's like so:



Hard to see I know but the second hole is above the stock one if you lay it flat...
